We are so encouraged by the work being done in our communities to safely reopen. As the pandemic and guidelines continue to evolve, there are steps we can continue taking to protect ourselves and those around us.

Remember: Practicing good hygiene, staying home when sick and taking extra precautions if you are high risk are just some of the ways we can work together to stay healthy.

Rivers do not drink their own water; trees do not eat their own fruit; the sun does not shine on itself and the flowers do not spread fragrance for themselves. Living for others is a rule of nature. We are all born to help each other. No matter how difficult it is…Life is good when you are happy; but much better when others are happy because of you.
